I Love You

I have despised you from birth, I have rejected and neglected
all that you've been to me. I never took the time to reach for your
outstretched hand...

   Chorus-> After all I've said and done unto you, I hear you say;
" Your my child, I love you. No matter what each day will bring, 
I've given my all for you. I love you!"

You have given me shelter in the storms but I never knew it 
came from you. Every time you showed the path of righteousness, 
I just turned away...

  Chorus-> After all I've said and done unto you, I hear you say;
" Your my child, I love you. No matter what each day will bring,
I've  given my all for you. I love you! "

You give me strength to over come my fears. 
You gave me life instead of death, You showed me faith, 
when I had none, but most of all you saved me.

  Chorus-> After all I've said and done unto you, I hear you say;
" Your my child, I love you. no matter what each day will bring,
I've given my all for you. I love you! "
